Sweet Potato And Cinnamon Icecream
About Sweet Potato And Cinnamon Icecream
I've been doubtful about the loads of homemade icecream recipes on the internet. Some of them takes frozen fruit, mix some ingredients and puree them in foodprocessor and freeze it. I always thought that's a frozen thick smoothie. Icecream should be rich, creamy and smooth. It should melt slowly into a luscious, tongue coating custard in your mouth. There are more such methods, so I was never really interested in trying out homemade icecream. But there's one 21 months old small person at my home who really really likes icecream and I can't really give him store-bought ones almost every alternate day... And now Plattershare is having a contest on icecreams!!! This much motivation was enough for me... So I thought let's do some googling.. find some really convincing recipe for icecream base and make an icecream by adding some healthy and favourite fruits of my dear baby boy... So here's my first ever try on icecream which is made of healthy sweet potato, cinnamon and some toasted almonds on top.
